Terrence Crawford vs Errol Spence - July 29

[Jating]

Finally, the fight every boxing fan has been waiting for is now sealed. I guess this is already 99% happening. Odds are already released as well.

Yes, the fight is official sealed by both parties, odds are showing that Spence is the underdog.

Still, I think Crawford is winning this match. As a matter of fact, to be quite frank, although this is a battle of undefeated fighters, I don't see this as a 50:50 match. I agree with the odds. Spence deserves to be the underdog. The last time he fought was more than a year ago. And then he had no fight in the whole of 2021. In his last few fights, he only had a UD against the two Garcias, Danny and Mikey, and only a split against Porter, who Crawford knocked out.

I think one of Crawford's advantage here is that he can adjust on the fly, he can fight both lefty and orthodox and majority of his fights are won because of that as his opponents can't adjust to this style. And then his sharp shooting, he has a knockout power and he hasn't been chin tested in his career. As compare to Spence who almost goes down against Ugas. And if Crawford lands that left hand, we will see if Spence can hold or will simply go down because of the power. And yeah, he fought more than a year ago so ring rust might be a factor too.

It was also reported that's there a rematch clause included in the contract:

Crawford And Spence Have Rematch Clauses In Contract For July 29th

This rematch between Errol Spence Jr. and Terence Crawford is necessary, given that both fighters are champions. One fight alone is not enough for them, and personally, I believe this bout will not go the distance, resulting in an entertaining fight that could end in a knockout. Both fighters exude confidence in their ability to emerge victorious, which heightens the excitement for fans. Once the betting odds are released, it would be wise to place bets early. However, I have a hunch that, similar to previously reported betting odds, Crawford may be favored to win despite Spence holding more belts.

Depending of the outcome because if it's already clear enough that one party has been dominating the opposite party, then maybe a rematch wouldn't be needed unless of course if there is still a hype surrounding them afterwards because that will be factor that will be looked by the promoters and organizers to push through a fight.

Anyway, let's just focus first in their first fight because we've waited this for months and months, and a rematch might look a bit blurry as of the moment knowing that it's another discussion between both camps that will go back and forth and possibly, worth a couple of months again before these two camps will agree.

Rematch will be useless in the eyes of the promoters and the boxing community if one fighter totally dominated the other fighter, for high level like these two its good to have a rematch but will totally depend on the outcome of the first match and how attractive it is to go for a rematch.
if the fight is too close they can still go for it and we'll have another hype like the first fight if the fight ended by total domination of another fighter the dominant fighter can opt for a higher take of the purse on the rematch.
So much speculation on the rematch but what we really want is to get this one over and hopefully, we'll enjoy it and live up to its hype, and be worth the spectators' money.

A rematch clause is just written on their contract if in-case such incidents will happen where the bout is close enough and the defeated side still got a chance to make a difference on their next fight, hence the name. But if there will be no clause like the one that is mentioned, then it will be useless to do a rematch even if the bout will come out so close because in most cases, the winning side will just proceed in the next phase of their career and declining about the possible rematch as they have the right to decline anything that is not written in the contract.

Even here in the forum, a lot of users are rooting for Crawford to win. Well, this is a good challenge for Spence.
As he knows that he's the underdog on this fight, he has strong motivation to seriously prepare for this fight.
This fight is a lucrative one for both boxers, and they will be earning good money no matter what.
The OP can edit the date to July 29 though, happening in Las Vegas, Nevada.

There is also an interview on Crawford stating that Spence told him that he took the easy route and fight Porter Jr. And then Spence calling Crawford too short for the 147 lbs and then him responding by pointing out that Spence is too fat, Lol.

So yeah the trash talk has started already since the official announcement of the fight. And whenever I check social medias like Twitter, either both or one of them are trending. And with that, it means it has now gathering steam and hype (again).

Trash talks seem to be one medium of hyping their fight and the more it gains attention and interest. Of course, their supporters will keep throwing vias decisions. But I like how it works and it changes the odds, a spike is possible to happen as the date of the fight gets closer. Both teams are preparing so well but I give my vote to Crawford, he got all the advantage over Spence. And I see his confidence to win the fight which is also a big factor.

That just shows that both of them exactly knew how to handle and market the fight because even though they know the fact that their fight will be a sold-out one, they just cannot take the chances of coming short when it comes to marketing it as there is also some factor that audience might have already lost some of their appetite due to the reasons of failing to materialize their fight few months ago plus there's the likes of April Fools prank of saying that they will announce the fight in Garcia-Davis mega fight, which also did not happen. So yes, this is their kind of thing to cover up what they have done in the recent months that have passed.

Yeah, it seems that in any kind of games there are some team who needs to have this kind of rivalry maybe in order for them to have more viewers? or to gain more popularity and bets. I just don't it when it is too obvious that trash talk and below the belt literally trash talks are not good. I give my vote to Crawford because I believe having a good kind of confidence will take him to be a champ.

A rivalry even before the event is planned is what the promoters and organizers are praying for as that literally means millions of dollars of profits to them, but sadly, even if the fight is already assumed a sold out fight even before they materialized it or even how big the hype is, sometimes conflicts between networks and politics are the main few things that hinders the fight and why some big fights that are asked by many are not happening.

[wheelz1200]

I got Crawford taking this one.  I know there is a guaranteed rematch clause if the lower wants and a third if it's split.  What's the chances this runs into a trilogy?  I haven't been this hyped about a fight for a long time.  This should be a good one.  I just hope it's not completely one sided where the lower bows out and goes a different direction.  Crawford 10th round two is my guess.

[goinmerry]

What's the chances this runs into a trilogy? 

I'm seeing a trilogy between them is possible if:

- if no boxing politics will ruin that or any dramas like what happened on how long this match got materialized
- if both boxers will not move up weight after their fight - for the winner despite being an undisputed champion already or for the loser, that doesn't have any interest anymore in the rematch
- if the price is right since the winner of this match should surely demand a much more share of the split in the rematch or trilogy
- if the match will end up DRAW

Anyways, too early for the trilogy discussion since even though there's a rematch clause on this match, I highly believed that it will go on a long process again, the same as what happened forming this first meetup. Aside from that, Crawford is catching up with his age and might push for the next stage of his career rather than facing Spence over and over again if he wins this match.

[Baofeng]

The poll is just about right, many of us are siding with Bud Crawford in this fight. In terms of activity, Spence hasn't fought in the last year, so I would give the advantage to Crawford. But I do expect the fight to go into the full 12 rounds. Similar to what we've seen in the Haney vs Loma fight, it's like a chess match and then in the championship rounds, we will see who wanted to fight the fight more, who has the heart.

Let's see how the first fight will conclude fight before talking of a rematch and then the trilogy itself. Even fighters says that this fight is 50/50 but in the end, give the edge to Crawford slightly.

I am happy to read the news about the upcoming match of Terrence Crawford and Errol Spence Jr.  At last after a long wait and controversy, we will be able to see these two great boxers making it out on the ring.

A trilogy is very possible with boxing politics.  First, they will make a controversial judge's decision ( if the fight doesn't end in knock-out) to trigger the need for the second match.  Then obviously they will make the loser win making it possible for the third fight, thus trilogy is created.

I am also inclined to Crawford's ability to beat Spence, but of course, there are many variables in the fight like how Spence Jr. prepares.  If Spence camp is able to scout Crawford's fighting pattern, they might create a strategy to counter or nullify Crawfords's ability.  After all when two great boxers fight, the camp competion in how they prepare their boxer is like chess.

And I think almost everyone is leaning towards Crawford because he seems to be the one really chasing and wanted this fight for a long time and then Spence just avoiding him at all cost.

But now he can't run, and he should be ready to face his nemesis.

We all know the skill levels of both of this fighter, nevertheless, I will be in the majority for favoring Crawford.

I would do the same. I'm also leaning towards Crawford because he is hungry for a win and wants to prove that he is the better fighter. So, I really like him to win too. Additionally, even though he is the favorite and the betting odds might not be attractive, it's always nice to bet on a fighter whom you are confident will win while watching him fight.

[Russlenat]

We all know the skill levels of both of this fighter, nevertheless, I will be in the majority for favoring Crawford.

This is the betting odds for the fight.

Multiple sportsbooks have released the Spence vs Crawford odds. Crawford, the 38-0 WBO welterweight champion, is a -150 favorite. Spence, the 28-0 WBC and IBF welterweight champ, comes back as the +120 underdog.

https://www.oddsshark.com/boxing/terence-crawford-errol-spence-odds

Crawford is the slight favorite, not surprising though and I think the odds although he is the favorite is still a decent one. Just bet 150 usd to win 100 usd. I would not hesitate betting on that, I'm just waiting for the betting odds to be available on the betting sites I'm using then I'll ride on.

Chances are high for a trilogy as this is a money fight. Of course everything hinges on the first fight, on how great it will be, how action packed are the rounds and not the boring, hug and be huge kind of fights. And if Crawford wins, by knockout then it will make the fans wanting to see the rematch and let's see if Spence was able to bounce back and make it even 1-1.

And maybe after that scenario, we could talked about a 3rd fight that will bring more money for this two boxers. And true, everyone is going to be excited and hype about this fight.

Yes, the odds are indeed reasonable and not that shocking considering that majority of people are looking Crawford as more dominant inside the ring compared to Spence.
Moreover, we already a had a few discussions about their match-up as they danced back and forth in the recent months that have passed and I think we've already established enough detail that there are more fans that are inclined towards Crawford.

Also, adding to the fact of which might be a factor of their fight is Errol Spence Jr.'s inactivity inside the ring for over a year after he fought Ugas and claimed his 3rd belt.

Good odds indeed. We know the capability of Terence Crawford to win this match and might dominate Errol Spence.

As a gambler putting some money on Crawford with that odds is already worth taking. Good thing that the odds between them are not that gap. Even those who want to put money on Spence can take advantage of the odds. Spence might be looked a not-tough opponent for Crawford but he's not an underdog to consider. He's also a big thing in the Welterweight but his camp is just associated with dramas.

Still waiting for other betting options as they might give us more worthy odds to pick.

In my own point of view, I will put my money on betting on the match result which is, the fight will end up in a Decision.

I'm seeing this fight will be a closed one and either none of them will allow a knock out win. Although not sure whom I will pick for now.
